About

Hey there! Pleasure to meet you, I'm Niek. A young, creative jack-of-all-trades with a passion for imagery and emotion. With a healthy dose of enthusiasm and a broad range of interests, I'm determined to make my mark on exciting projects. I get excited about organizations making a social impact, but I'm more than willing to make an exception for a cool advertising agency, for example. 😉 I'm often known as "that friendly and engaged colleague," but as a solo creative, I stand confidently on my own. You might find me involved in the volunteer work I do, at my own business 'Studio Sjongedejonge,' or in and around the Breda municipality. In short; I'm often everywhere and nowhere, busy with a bit of everything. If you're still unsure whether we'd make a good connection, how about grabbing a coffee soon? I'd be happy to come your way!

  • Digitaal Professional at Politie Nederland

    Binnen mijn rol als Digitaal Professional werk ik aan de digitale doorontwikkeling van basisteams in het district Hart van Brabant. Ik vervul een coachende en adviserende rol bij het toepassen van digitale middelen in het politiewerk, ondersteun opsporingsonderzoeken met digitale expertise, en help collega’s digitaal vaardiger te worden. Mijn werkzaamheden variëren van het begeleiden van aangiften met een digitale component, het zoeken naar digitale sporen bij cybercrime en online fraude. Daarbij werk ik nauw samen met wijkagenten, rechercheurs, analisten en andere specialisten binnen het team. Ik draag bij aan de digitale transitie van de politie door innovatieve ideeën te introduceren, digitale trends te signaleren en kennis actief te delen. In deze functie combineer ik mijn technische vaardigheden met mijn passie voor opsporing, innovatie en maatschappelijke veiligheid.

    There's quite a clash going on between companies; Who has the biggest offer and who can deliver the fastest? Let the giants fight it out while we focus on the underdogs. Because maybe the customer isn't looking for the fastest delivery, but just for a party with a human point of contact. And if you're that one brand, you certainly need to radiate it. I'm your partner in crime when it comes to making your brand sparkle. Here, it's not just about designing pretty pictures, but about embracing the unique vibe of your brand and bringing forward that 'je ne sais quoi' that makes it so special. At Studio Sjongedejonge, we aim for more than just graphic design. We want to capture the soul of your brand - that energy, that 'wow factor' that makes people smile or raises their eyebrows with excitement. So, let's take a peek into the colorful world of your brand. Together, we'll explore it, push the boundaries, and shake the perfect visual cocktail with a dose of creative chaos. Whether you need a funky logo, a refreshing corporate identity, or just some graphic magic to bring your brand to life, I'm totally ready for it!
